425.32 is what percent of 2805 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 2805 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 2805, so we can write it down as 100%=2805.
4. We know, that x% equals 425.32 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=425.32.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2805
2) x%=425.32
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=2805/425.32
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 425.32 is what percent of 2805

100%/x%=2805/425.32
(100/x)*x=(2805/425.32)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=6.5950343270949*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.5950343270949) to get x
100/6.5950343270949=x
15.162923351159=x
x=15.162923351159

now we have:
425.32 is 15.162923351159% of 2805
